Hello again Julie,
I remember your mother very well. I am the granddaughter of Margaret (Maggie) and Alfred Pollen, they had one daughter Florence who was my mother. I spent a lot of my time as a child visiting and staying with "Auntie Charlotte and Uncle Vic" it was my second home! You mention that Charlotte emigrated, I can't believe that I never heard that story are you sure it was her?
Can I suggest that we keep in touch by email? My address is
lynne2@orange.fr I expect we have the same wedding photos - there is a large one of the group. On it are two young girls (my sister, June and I. We were bridesmaids) I am the smallest one.
Look forward to hearing from you and then I can probably answer a lot of your questions.
